Confirmed by Jonathan Blow and Sucker Punch, demos were running on PS4 devkits. Most importantly, they were running PS4 GameOS, not Windows.

For the MS apologists, if that was an XBone devkit, why was it running Windows 7? No matter how much spin is given, it still looks just as bad.

Look at the pic dude and those multiple flat panels on the wall. This is the room wfere they had 7x7 tournaments for TitanFalls. The pcs in that room were using window 7 and nvidia graphics carf.
You are trying your damnist to make something out of nothing.

4,147.2 GFlop cards running their demos? I mean, this is a little bit beyond overcompensation here. These development kits are galaxies beyond what is going in the retail machine.

There is no Nvidia G-card in the dev kits the dev kits are enclosed you can't even see whats inside. Thats why this story is BS and made up.
On top of that their is massive amount of security to prevent theft of dev kits and someone trying to pry it open.

Xbox One dev kits are of course not NVIDIA, but these E3 booths are not using dev kits, hence why they are using NVIDIA cards.

I'm looking at the pic...Xbox One is plastered everywhere on the Xbox green carpet and walls.

Nothing really new here, except maybe the name of the type of gpu involved. However, that doesn't really make any difference. What environment are they running the Xbox One game on, and how is that environment limiting the actual hardware usage?

Of course they were on dev kits. Anything shown at E3, regardless of platform, was a dev kit.

A Windows 7 PC With 780 GTX card is not a devkit.

At least i got my answer to why Ryse was running so smoothly with so much eye candy.

Once more into the fray.
Into the last good fight I'll ever know.
Live and die on this day.

Edit-removed unnecessary comment. If those are "devkits", then why was the Windows 7 desktop HP branded? Is the claim going to be made that HP is now providing "devkits" for MS? LOL!

The point that seems to be missed here amongst some is that the XBone OS was *NOT* a GameOS, it booted up to Windows 7. Even if the PS4 demo units weren't devkits, they were running Playstation GameOS. Just that indicates how much further along Sony is with the PS4. And the PS4 devs have stated their demos were running on devkits with representative hardware. To top it off, there have been many observations that the PS4 game demos looked better in comparison. So, PS4 representative hardware was looking better than a top end PC with some of the graphics settings cranked down. Spin like a whirling dervish all you want, because the spin looks like a downward spiral out of control.

Pacing in wait of Sony's imminent DOOM!...since 2006

lol... I do believe dev kits are usually similar specs that have more RAM but the same architecture. When developing a game you do have more stuff going in the background so you will probably need more power. This is nothing new with E-3 shows.

You do not know and yet you act like you do.

My position is that it is highly unlikely. It is closed console so they may be able to highly optimize to run similar, but with dead line and budgets, unlikely.

Just look at GTX 560 vs 780. It's not even funny.

The games will run and look similar. If your target is AMD you still can develop with Nvidea. We still don't know everything about the X1 GPU yet.

Unless MS owns the IP it will get ported like most 3rd party exclusives.

w. t. f, MS? If the games look worse than what was shown at e3 then . Seeing them compete with disadvantages will be interesting.

If they were running on an Nvidia GPU thats tons more powerful than what their retail console AMD GPU is going to be than the games graphics are definitely going to look worse. No way around that. The Xbone specs are locked in.
